and their wins only … I'm including should make the HOF as well for the modern fighters .. Forget about when they fought them, green or past it, looking for the most names … well, who has or will have the most up to this point?? If they win one or more and they lose one or more with the same guy , the name counts
I could be wrong, but I think that the only fighters with 10 or more would be Greb, SRR, Armstrong, Langford, and McLarnin.
SRR fought 4 fighters that were rated in the Top 50 of the last 50 years in 1996 by the ring magazine!
I never looked into it myself, but I did watch a similar thread on another forum. There Jack Dempsey won, but it was limited to HW.
I haven't either and I do not know .. Threw it out there to see if someone knew off hand who and how many.
